About Ho-House Edificio residenziale

Ho-House è una residenza privata costruita in un affollato quartiere residenziale di Takarazuka, in Giappone. Il progetto nasce dall'idea di tagliare e piegare un foglio di carta. Sottili lastre bianche in cemento armato vengono piegate per plasmare lo spazio, e i bordi delle lastre sono tagliati in modo che la struttura appaia più sottile di quanto sia in realtà. Ferramenta su misura per i serramenti rende le aperture prive di soluzione di continuità. Dietro il posto auto, una terrazza-corte crea un'area privata che collega il soggiorno, la sala da pranzo, il bagno e la camera dei bambini. La casa si apre verso il cielo e mette in relazione gli interni con la natura.

Press Kit

Unique Properties
The space, created by folding white, thin slabs that have lost their mass and texture, shifts the axis of sensory interpretation from figurative to abstract and deepens our understanding of formless events. The inside-our-side continuity facilitated by the building, and the abstract phenomena that result from its relationship with nature, make us aware that the basis of both is the same and shorten the distance between the two at once, merging them into one.

Design Challenge
The origin of Ho-House is to cut a part of a piece of paper and fold it. Many technologies were required, such as the technology to cut the tip of the slab to make the slab that becomes thicker in the structure look thinner, and the sash hardware that was originally manufactured to make it look more seamless.
Research
Ho-House is a house requested in a crowded residential area, and the challenge was how to create a space to release the mind.
Inspiration
Architecture is a vessel that carves out a tiny space in an infinitely expanding universe. For the heart to truly grasp that the inner space is also part of the universe, it's essential that life dwells in architecture.
The site is completely surrounded by various houses.However, the sky’s vastness and closeness were overwhelming, and the clear blue sky shook my heart.Tasked with assessing the relationship between nature and the mind and engaging the sky, I am to create an architecture in here.
Project Duration
Design from 2016 to 2017 Construction from 2017 to 2020.
Location: Takarazuka city,Hyogo,Japan
Operation Flow
Behind the parking space is a courtyard terrace, creating a private space that makes you forget about the densely populated residential areas. The terrace is a harmonious presence that connects the living room, dining room, bathroom, and children's room.
